The test '--no-show-forced-updates' in 't5510-fetch.sh' added in
cdbd70c437 (fetch: add --[no-]show-forced-updates argument,
2019-06-18) runs '! test_i18ngrep ...'.  This is wrong, because when
running the test with GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=true, then
'test_i18ngrep' is basically a noop and always returns with success,
the leading ! turns that into a failure, which then fails the test.

Use 'test_i18ngrep ! ...' instead.

This went unnoticed by our GETTEXT_POISON CI builds, because those
builds don't run this test case: in those builds we don't install
Apache, and this test comes after 't5510' sources 'lib-httpd.sh',
which, consequently, skips all the remaining tests, including this
one.

This is a minor issue in v2.23.0-rc0.

'git grep "! test_i18n"' shows no other similar cases.

Hrm...  It looks like there is nothing httpd-specific in this test
case, at all, so we could run it even if a webserver is not available.
Moving this test case earlier in the script seems to confirm it, as it
still succeeds.

However, I'm not really familiar with this
'--[no-]show-forced-updates' option, and this is not the time to get
up to speed, so I would let Derrick to decide and follow up...

I was about to recommend you move the test to before the check for
the changes. I only put the test near the end as I normally don't want
to insert into the middle of a test script.  It makes sense to do so
here.
